Did you miss the base change was MFC'd to several /stable branches?
What you propose would break declarative style in favor of unwieldy
conditional where snapshot ranges aren't tested by the package cluster.
When to garbage-collect it also becomes less clear.

.if (${OPSYS} == FreeBSD && (${OSVERSION} < 1103501 || \
    (${OSVERSION} >= 1200000 && ${OSVERSION} < 1200513) || \
    (${OSVERSION} >= 1300000 && ${OSVERSION} < 1300034)))
LDFLAGS+=	-lpthread
.endif

Why do you care so much about -CURRENT snapshots with known vulnerabilities?
If you simply don't have time/resources to upgrade -CURRENT jails why not
locally revert the offending commit.
